Enabling wireless ad hoc edge systems with Yggdrasil
Pedro Ákos Costa, André Rosa, Joao Carlos Antunes Leitao · 2020
Wireless ad hoc networks were extensively studied in the past given their potential for scalability, ease of deployment, and suitability for scenarios where no infrastructure is available. Considering the recent relevance of applications, particularly in the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing domains, revisiting these networks becomes a necessity, as to develop novel distributed applications. Distributed applications are highly complex as they require multiple services and abstractions supported by a wide range of distributed protocols, specially in such adverse domains.
